The civil applications of UAV, UAS, and drones, as well as the integration of their operations into flight schedules with the urban environment or smart city total transportation system are attracting researchers. This study introduces the developed operational concept for drone flight operations in an urban area, including the airspace design, the recommended construction of the airways, and the essential safety requirements. It also investigates the applicable management system that must be highly automatized, with central observation/supervision, and permit fully autonomous flights of drones using GPS and active marker systems being integrated into the infrastructure as well as defined in a GIS environment. The proposed option is based on the definition of routes as desired and commanded trajectories and their autonomous execution. The airspace structure and fixed routes are given in the global GPS reference system with supporting GIS mapping. The concept application requires a series of further studies and solutions as drone trajectory (or corridor) followed by an autonomous trajectory tracking control system, coupled with autonomous conflict detection, resolution, safe drone following, and formation flight options.
